Ecosystem Change?
Does anybody have any idea why i can't seem to change my URL on the ecosystem? i've been submitting requests to NZ Bear every day for a couple of weeks now, but i'm still listed at my old Glogspot address. And my rank keeps going down as people update their links. : (

It's a manual process. The Bear has to check to requests and make the changes manually.

Yes, adding a new blog is automatic. But having two entries for the one blog can cause problems. Not mentioning any names.

It's a pain, isn't it?
What I finally did was add my Munuvian blog as a new entry. Then, I went and deleted the Blogspot entry. It took a couple of weeks to diasappear, but after that it was all good.

In The Laboratory
I've been trying to find out the right way to implement labs (and other subsites) with WHM/CPanel.
Turns out that there isn't one. You can only do it the wrong way. Well, as far as I can see, anyway.
All I want is:
Another domain name.
Under an existing user.
That points to a different directory.
A directory under that user's account.
But not a subdirectory of their main web site.
As far as I can tell, neither CPanel nor WHM will let you do that. It's trivial with Apache.
So I just went and hacked the Apache configuration file. That works, at least.
I'll do the other labs shortly. MookieLab I fudged because Mookie needed it for her blog to work, so I'll need to go back and redo that one.

Bwahahaha!
I now have CPanel bent to my will. Well, I have it configured the way I want it, anyway.
You all have control over your mu.nu domains. Well, you will once I send you your CPanel logins, anyway. You can also, if you happen to have a .com or .net or some such domain lying about, associate that with your mu.nu account.
You can create subdomains under your main domain too. So, for example,
Susie could create everlastingslurpee.practicalpenumbra.mu.nu if she had a mind to.
You can receive email at your domain, and send email from it. I will also be creating a mu.nu email address for everybody. susie at mu dot nu and so on. We don't have any name collisions yet, do we?
Hmm. What else?
Oh yes. Your accounts give you each 500 megabytes of disk space and 5 gigabytes a month of bandwidth. Those limits are really just there in case something goes wrong. Given all the toys you have to play with, you might unintentionally chew up a lot of disk space. Or something. If you really do need more space or bandwidth, that's not a problem, there's plenty to spare. At the moment, no-one is using more than about 50 meg of disk space or 2 gig a month of bandwidth. (Susie is top of the bandwidth users, by the way, followed by Jim, then me, then Helen.)
We have 60 gig of (mirrored!) disk dedicated to the web sites and 500 gig a month of bandwidth, so we can easily accomodate a hundred blogs.*
Speaking of which...
* Unless one of you turns out to be the next Instapundit. I calculated a while back that Glenn must go through about 200 gig of bandwidth a month... Turns out I was within 10% of the actual figure.
Update: Oh, your disk usage won't show up until I've fully integrated your blog with CPanel. I'm doing this one blog at a time, so each blog will be down at some point for about fifteen seconds.

Quick Question: Does anyone actually use their two-letter secret MuNu codes? I know Susie does, I'm pretty sure Jennifer does. Anyone else?
I ask because I've only bothered to set up pp and jl so far.
I'm thinking of setting up a personalisable web portal thingy at my.mu.nu. (Like my.yahoo.com). Then I can grab the username "me" and have the email address me at my dot mu dot nu. (Don't want the spammers to get it before I even set it up.)

Yeah, one or the other.
I started out giving everyone two-letter shortcuts for their blogs, so Susie is at pp.mu.nu and Jennifer is at jl.mu.nu. You would logically be nm.mu.nu but I stopped doing it somewhere along the line.
After all, then we'd be limited to 676 Munuvians.

It's at the mu.nu where it doesn't work. Don't know if it's doing it at the .com as I can't hit that at the moment.

Any suggestions for how to get Stevie's 'rememberer' to start working? In fact, I can't get any of the mu.nu blogs to remember me, and I've got my Mozilla cookies set to 'accept all' just to be sure. I'm grabbing cookies from other domains just fine.
Any and all suggestions appreciated, it's drivin' her bonkers. Not a very long trip, fortunately :^)

DNS. Bah!
All the remaining issues seem to be DNS-related and are driving me slightly crazy.
For one thing, we've moved from a single centralised mu.nu domain where everything was controlled with a simple text file, to a multispliferous system that is controlled through CPanel.
In theory, this is good, because now you have control over your own domains. In practice, it is very very fiddly.
For example, if I set up Jim's account as snoozebuttondreams.mu.nu and park snoozebuttondreams.com on top of it, the server doesn't know it should be handling DNS for snoozebuttondreams.com. On the other hand, if I set up the account as snoozebuttondreams.com, I can't park snoozebuttondreams.mu.nu on top because CPanel thinks it's owned by another user. I don't know who, because it doesn't tell me, but I think it's because I also have an account for the mu.nu domain itself. I don't think CPanel likes that much.
Oh, and even though I set up the DNS in advance to refresh after 20 minutes, so that we wouldn't have to wait hours for it to propagate, it's still taking hours to propagate. Pfft.

Logging In
Hi all.
Some of the ways of logging in that worked before might not work now. Helen found one of them. I suspect Susie found another.
The easiest way is to just go to
http://blog.mu.nu/. That should bring the login up. If you're already getting the login okay, don't worry about it.

Now we're in business! Thanks, Pixy!
Hmmm...wonder if this means I should get off my ass, put the wineglass down, and post something.
Nah.

i had to use the new login. By the way, rebuilding is amazingly fast, now!

Hi Lovey!
I can't get in...lol.
I could last night when I got yer email that it was done, but now, my link says that 'cannot find page, may have had a name change or moved' error. When I click on the 'blogs.mu.nu' link there, it goes to a completely blank page, the same as when I click the link in this post.
Soooo, now what?
*Siigh, yet still giggling*

If you get the blank page, it means you're going to the old site. I'll put a little note on the old site to say so.
Unfortunately, I can't do anything about that. It's just that the internet takes a little while to realise that we've moved.
In the meantime, you can blog in my comments.

So, it'll solve itself, eventually?
I will be able to post again soon?
(lol)

Yep, it should fix itself.
The fact that it seems to be working for everyone else (except Jim, who is still having some problems) indicates that I've got it right. It does take a while for every ISP to get updated with the details of the new server.

I'm finally getting around to looking at it. My quickie test post worked fine! And, yeah, everything seems a *lot* faster! Pixy, you are teh bestest!

It's working peachy for me except I feel very sniffly since I didn't get an email and somebody else did, rather like when I don't win the lotto and someone else does.
Oh, and when I tried to get to the extended version of one of my posts, it came up blank consistently so I just popped it up into the main and it was fine.
Yes, very petty of me, nothing to see here, move along.
Pixy, it's all lovely.

Someone got an email? I didn't get an email.
Not sure why your extended post is playing up. Mine don't work at all, but that's because I broke them.

I still cannot get to the login or post page.

Yes, I can! Yay.
I left here and did an ancient tribal dance involving nudity and chicken bones and...
I got in!
Thank you, Lord...
You too, Pixy.

Status Update
Okay, everything is moved across to the new server. I am still tidying up bits and pieces, but it mostly works. The various Lab Blogs haven't been set up, but will be done by tomorrow.
If you see anything else that doesn't work, please comment here, because I could well have missed something.
Update: It really is quite a bit faster.

It all seems to work except for email notifications. I'll work on that once I have the forums up and running.

I logged in and loaded two posts I worked on last night. I hit save and it went through all the usual motions. The posts don't appear on my site. I can edit them and they show up on the edit entries list with a status of published.
I have emptied the browser cache - quit and relaunched the browser - I even went as far as to open IE. Still no posts.

Stephen - Woops! Sorry about that.
I had your DNS entry configured slightly differently and it didn't come across with the others. I've fixed it now, but it will still take a little while to propagate.
If you take a look at mustard.mu.nu, you can see your updated blog.
Posted by: Pixy Misa @ at February 21, 2004 01:14 PM

Good propagation should be taken slowly.

Trouble with my title
I'm having trouble with my logo at the top of my blog.
I can't get it to appear right. I tried looking at the style sheet, and upped it to a highre number, but it still won't appear.
I looked in the main index template, but can't find where to make it so I can see my new logo.
any suggestions?

You need to up the margin on your #content style.

Bastardry Afoot
Hi kids.
We seem to be under some sort of spam attack. Please bear with me while I get it cleaned up and then blocked. In the mean time posting will be a little bit slow.
Update: Okay, I've deleted 130 spam comments and blocked the lowlife's IP address (81.9.106.157). We won't be hearing from them again in a hurry!
Another 40-odd spams were blocked by MT Blacklist between the time I added it to the list and the time I blocked the IP. (About 15 minutes.)

Ooh. That's the guy I whacked this morning. Didn't think he might be tossing his load on other Munuvians too.
Posted by: Jim @ at February 20, 2004 04:25 PM

I put a global block on that IP because he was sending 20 comments at a time and dragging the whole server down.
It looks like it's a deliberate attack too, and not just spam. The words are mis-spelled and the email address keeps changing to avoid the black list.
Bastards.

He started on the Alliance blog, too--thank God for email comment notification! I banned that weasel asap. Typepad has a cool feature where ALL comments can be listed, and all I had to do was check the ones I wanted deleted.

Reminder
Remember, MuNu will be Munuving this coming Saturday (the 21th of Feb). I'll be doing the work during the day where I am, which (except for Simon and Cherry) will be during the night where you are.
All the blogs should be readable at all times during the move, but posting and commenting will be turned off for a few hours.
Once the move is completed successfully, I'll be emailing everyone their password so they can log in and play with the new toys. Your Movable Type logins won't change, but you'll have an extra login for everything else.
Update: Tom:
These goodies.

Susie, you can set your CPanel password (the new one) to be the same as your Movable Type password. It's just that I don't know what everyone's MT passwords are.

Pixy - question?
When we move to the new server (and I see that we are going to have Fantastico), are we going to be able to install things like Wordpress as blogging tools?
Not that I'm going to, just curious...
Posted by: Daniel @ at February 20, 2004 03:07 PM

You'll have that option, yes. Of course, then your blog wouldn't update the recent posts thingy here. (Anyway, once the move is completed I'll be going back to working on Minx.)
There are a lot of toys available on the new server, and I won't be policing their use, but please try not to go too berserk.

Viewing and deleting comments
How can I view all comments and delete ones I don't want.
I had a problem with very racist comments, and I didn't know until they were made public at Blogcricis.org, and I was accused of supporting those wacky racists.
Can I get a hand?

I guess you could use Blacklist to do some of it. Add a common derogatory word used in the subject posts and then run the cleaner. Don't forget to remove the word when you're done, unless it's a really nasty one like "the N-word" or "French".
Posted by: Jim @ at February 17, 2004 09:31 PM

YEah, it's the n-word. the trouble with that is they spell it with letters and numbes to disguise it.

You should be able to delete (or rewrite, mheh) comments at your Nap Room login, Manage Weblog, Edit Entries, select the entry from the list. Scroll down from the text of the entry to the list of commenters. You should be able to delete it right there, or you can click on the commenter's name and just delete or change it one word at a time.

Drat and Double Drat
Those of you using the MuNu javascript blogrolls, please be advised that these are completely ignored by the Ecosystem's link counter thingy.
I'll have a solution for this later today.

Does theat mean that all of javascript link lists are not working? I am in the Alliance, and most of them have me blogrolled,
hmmm.
Posted by: Tom @ at February 17, 2004 05:15 PM

That's what I suspect.
I'm not sure of this, but I think the Ecosystem just reads and parses the HTML, ignoring everything else. So Javascript gets thrown away.
Posted by: Pixy Misa @ at February 17, 2004 05:22 PM

But somehow the Bear counts the Alliance (or other) links taken from his script. So there must be a way around it.

Annika and Sarah have yet to register their mu.nu blogs with the ecosystem and the numbers above represent their blogspot blogs. Come on, Sarannikah, update your eco-info!!
Writer's Noose and
Frontline Meeting Place are understandably not registered.
Psssssssst, TIGER!! Register
USURP!!!!!
Since there are now nearly 8,000 blogs in the ecosystem, lots of us are now Large Mammals and Marauding Marsupials. Woo hoo!! The breakdown is as follows:
1-11: large mammals
12-18: marauding marsupials
19-21: adorable rodents
22-23: flappy birds
24-27: slithering reptiles
28-30: crawly amphibians
31: flippery fish
One last point: Since there are 31 mu.nu blogs, I don't understand how Mr Green, Collins, Stephen, Cherry, Tiger and Tim can possibly have so few inbound links. Wussupwitdat?

I swear this whole Ecosystem thing doesn't work. When I check it, I have 127 inbound links, plus a number of others that I know of don't show up on technorati.
I've decided to ignore all that stats stuff and just be.

Collapsable lists definitely work - verified that when I first implemented them. The difference is that all of the urls are there on the page with the collapsable list, they're just visually displayed/hidden with the on mouseclick event.
